Taylor Eigsti: Lucky to Be Me
by Ken Kase
It must indeed be a lucky thing to be Taylor Eigsti, a 21-year-old pianist who has already been performing for over a decade.

Taylor Eigsti: Lucky to Be Me
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
Lucky to Be Me is the fifth release by the talented pianist/composer Taylor Eigsti, and his first on the Concord label.

On the jazz side, singers like Billie Holiday, Joe Williams, Carmen McRae and Shirley Horn looked across ...
Stan Getz: Plays for Lovers
by Norman Weinstein
This compilation enters a marketplace littered with Getz compilations--and it's superior to the lot.
